Ralph Business Portfolio
£170/$185 buckleandseam.com
The latest thing of beauty from Buckle & Seam, the Ralph business portfolio is a luxurious vegetable-tanned leather case for your laptop or ipad that accommodates anything up to 14 inches. The case also features dedicated pockets for your iphone, portable power bank, headphones, cables and pens, and sports a neat magnetically-sealed pouch for loose items. The case zips neatly up and is designed to be carried under-arm to ensure that you radiate the maximum level of cool and sophistication. It even smells wonderful!
M2 IEM Noise Isolating Earphones
£45/$60 brainwavzaudio.com
If you’re using slightly older IOS devices (those with a traditional headphone jack) then you’ll probably not want to break the bank buying high-end headphones. The M2 IEM Noise Isolating Earphones from Brainwavz are highly affordable, well-built and deliver a detailed and refined sound. The durable, twisted oxygen-free copper cable helps keep the weight down and the earphones feature a metallic casing and come with six different sizes of silicone tips.
Moshi Mythro Air
£79.95/$89.95 moshi.com
These lightweight Bluetooth earphones provide up to eight hours of play time and feature acoustically-tuned DR8 Neodymium drivers for a crisp sound. They also come with a magnetic clip so that you can attach the central base unit to your clothing, a selection of hybridinjection ear tips and a microusb charge cable. Thanks to Moshi’s Dj4two technology, music can also be streamed to a second headset – perfect as those long winter nights draw in!
Moshi Travel Stand
£29.95/$30.99 moshi.com
Although this device doesn’t offer wireless charging, it does act as a neat bedside support for your Apple Watch that works with Nightstand mode and provides cable management for an uncluttered environment. The fold up arm can be angled to present the best display of the screen while you’re horizontal and provides easy access for the charging cable. It’s by no means an essential item, but would certainly serve as a decent stocking filler.
Logitech Crayon
£64.99/$64.99 logitech.com
Based on Apple Pencil technology, the Logitech Crayon has been designed exclusively for the 9.7-inch ipad and offers a versatile and precise writing experience. The perfect tool for getting creative, the slim shaft can be tilted to change from thin to thick lines and a palm-rejection feature allows users to rest a hand on the ipad screen without it interfering with the interface. A full charge provides up to seven hours of use, making this the perfect classroom alternative to the Apple Pencil.
